What Causes Fever And Cough After A Liposuction?

I had a breast reduction and lipo on 18 May. Since then I ve had low grade fever. Nothing over 100.4. Today I started experiencing coughing with yellow phlegm. Should I be concerned about pneumonia? I went back to work last week and have been walking around. This just started today.

Hi,

Pneumonia may be possible so you should do an X-ray of chest to check for pneumonia. This may not be much related to aesthetic surgery.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
